UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE,

WILLIAM T. SEE, OF MEADVILLE, PENNSYLVANIA.

STOVE-POLISH.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 332,756, dated December 22, 1885.

Application filed June 13, 1885. Serial No. 168,657.

To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that I, WILLIAM T. SEE, a citizen of the United States, residing at Meadville, in the county of Crawford and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful composition of matter to be used as a Stove-Polish, of which the following is a specification.

My composition consists of the following ingredients combined in the proportions stated, viz: pure water, one gallon; dextrine, two pounds; plumbago, twenty-two pounds; lampblack, one-half pound.

The water is heated to the boiling-point, when the dextrine is put in and Well stirred; then the lamp-black, after being rubbed through afine sieve, is added to the plumbago and thoroughly mixed in a dry state, and then added to the already stirred dextrine (N0 specimens.)

and water, and all well stirred together, when it is ready for use.

To be applied with a brush, commence a vigorous friction with the brush while the composition is still moist, when a brilliant polish will be produced on the stove or other metal. When thus applied not an atom of dirt will result from the operation.

What I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States, is-

The herein described composition to be used as a polish for stoves or other metallic surfaces, consisting of water, dextrine, plumbago, and 1amp-black, in the proportions specified.

WILLIAM '1. SEE.
